Esp with described dynamic where we might get raised a healthy portion of the time with air and will have to fold basically our entire range to him?

Against a weaker opponent, or one who will play more straight forward I like a bet/bet/decide line much more.


If I bet turn, I def call river here.

C/c the back 2 streets makes sense.


Preflop raise is to 30 for what reason?

Preflop raise is to 30 because this is a very deep game and you usually get a lot of callers pre flop (as you can see, I received 3 callers)

Why do you want AQs multiway deep in a very bloated pot?

Wouldn't rather be able to navigate a higher SPR?

Pretty easy call imo. You're not beating any value, but if he ever has bluffs otr (which I assume he would being a good player) this has to be a call.

In my opinion:
The preflop raise seems a bit to big unless you open x6 with all your range from each position and everybody is deep like you and the V1. The problem is that if you open this big and the opponents are not deep and very loose you loose a lot o value because they can find folds with hands like (Ex:T9o Q9 A5 A2 etc..) and you will reduce their range to pocket pairs, strong aces and few suited connectors.
Making very big pot preflop can put you in tough spots postflop when you are not comfortable to play deep especially OOP.
As played posflop will play the same until the river, that T on the river gives me 2 options (bet to get call from AJ or check to bluff catch). If he knows me as a nit and don't think i will barrel bluff 3 streets with draw I will check for sure the river and hope he will bluff, if my image is of a player that is capable of bluffs I incline to bet also the river to get action from AJ and if he raise based on what you told up about him I probably incline to call

Lol my game has changed so much after 6 years. I was using crazy big sizes when I probably should bet half pot on flop and 1/2 on turn to balance my range. I was also playing with scared money at that time
